In the style of a great champion Usain Bolt saved his best time of the season for the men's 100 metres
final, at the 2015 World Championships in Beijing. Justin Gatlin with a faster time going into the race (9.74)
once again had to settle for the silver medal as he had done four years earlier in Moscow. But it was a very
close race as their two times indicate.
